Another Railroad Project.

Anything in the way Of railroad
nows is sure TO catch the ear of the
Hopkinsville public. Our people
have voted aid TO two railroads in
the last two years, neither of which
has 80 far made movement in the
direction of giving us the competing
line so earnestly desired. We have
been disappointed in the hope that
the Ohio Valley would do something
this fall, but we are still unwilling
to believe that company will fail
to comply with its contract with us
to build road TO Princeton within
the next thirteen months. But there
is just enough uncertainty about the
o. v. TO make our people willing 10
lend willing ear to the propositions
of other syndicates wanting 10 build
lines to Hopkinsville. Some time last
year negotiations were pending with
Mr.. Deane, of Chicago, who was al
the head of syndicate that proposed
to build an air line from Chicago Ia
the South, via this place. Unfor-
tunately, Mr.. Deane died just before
his plans were completed, but his
successors have by no means aban'
doned the project. Last Tuesday
Messrs Thos. Il. LOOMS and ID. A
Courier, of Chicago, came TO this city
ON business connected with the con-
tsmplated road. Nothing has beer
given out concerning what was done
but 1t 10 enough TO say that tho gen
tlemen were given cordial rscsp
ton by tho live citizens of Hopkins
vile, who gave them assurances tina
our people stood ready TO give an,
reasonable aid necessary TO insurI
the road.
A consultation was held will
Judge Landes, Capt. TONNES and
other gentlemen interested In the
future prosperity and development
of Hopkinsville, but those gentlemen
decline to make any statement a. K
what was said or done. 1t 10 mo-
unlikely that something definite vii
be given out at an early day. II thu
gentlemen have proposition to sub
init let il be forth coming. Hopkins
vile wants railroads now, the more
the better, and any company thal
means business can get reasonable
amount Of help, but we don't wan

more subscriptions unless there cal
can be guaranty that the RAILROAD
companies win fulfil their contracts

CAsKY, KY, Nov. II, 'S7.-One
more beautiful Indian summer day
is fading and that distant sunset,
yelled by cloud Of mist, breathes
into existence the evening hours.
Summer has come and gone, and
autumn is dying in the arms OF
winter. How forcibly am l remind
ed Of ths sublime works of nature
in the grand old forest tree, that
stands as If doing sentinel duty, near
my window; there 1t stands so
strong and sturdy and yet SO beau
tiful. How proudly 1t lifta its hoary
head to the winter storms, and with
what a full heart 1t rejoices when the
spring has come again. All day it
points to the sunshine and all night
to the stars, and, thus passionless
yet full of life, it lives on and on,
drawing its sustenance from the cool
bosom of its mother earth, and re-
warding her by its foliage and
grandeur, till at last on that appoint
ed day, when the wind will win the
long battle and rejoice over re-
claimed space, or decay puts the last
stroke to his fungus fingered work.
Jack Warfield left here Tuesday
for st. Louis en- route to Los Angeles,
Cal, where he will make his future
home.

There is more Catarrh in this section OF the
country than all other diseases put together,
and until the last few years was supposed to
be incurable. For great many years Doctors
pronounced 1t local disease, and prescribed
local remedies. and by constantly falling to
cure with local treatment pronounced it incu-
rable. Science has proven Catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and therefore requires
a constitutional treatment. HAlrs Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. j. Cheney &Co.
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure
now on the market. 1t is taken internally
in doses from ten drops to teaspoonful. Al
